Awkward and Awesome Thursday

First, I would like to say CONGRATULATIONS to Matt, Val, and Austin Getz!!  Baby Emma should hopefully be here today!!  Yay!!

(I promise... he really is excited...) 

Now onto the highlight of my Thursday:

Awkward:

-Giving your grocery list to complete strangers.  I'm going to be house/dog-sitting this coming week while the home-owners are going to FL.  They are complete strangers to me... the wife works with my mom which is how I got the job.  But still.... they wanted a grocery list from me and uhhh... I don't eat at home a lot so..... what am I supposed to say??  I honestly forget what I used to make myself for lunches and dinner.

-Those same strangers making a comment: (not word for word) "You can sleep in our bed.  Don't worry, I'll be up at 3:00 in the morning putting clean sheets on for you." Uhh... my mind totally jumped straight to the "dirty" part of the sheets... how dirty are they??  Don't get me wrong... I def would NOT be sleeping on their nast sheets but still... the mind goes where the mind wants to go... and I don't need to be thinking about how dirty your sheets are stranger.

-Ok let's set the stage real quick: there's a lady that I have daily interaction with and I'm not a huge fan of her.  I have nothing against her as a person really... I just don't like the way she does things, most of the things she says, her personality, or just about anything else about her.  She's backstabbed me a few times as well.  So, needless to say, I'm not a huge fan.  BUT I've never flat out told her that I don't like her or intentionally been rude... I just try to avoid her as much as possible.  Well......

As I was walking back in the door from lunch yesterday, I was greeted with a long, awkward stare ((seriously... head tiled, eyes wide, and just a point blank stare)) from this person followed by this comment: "I wish you liked me."  Then she walked away.  Seriously??  This was then followed up with a comment "Sorry.  That was too personal." ((...as she's walking past me in the hallway)). Ya think?!?!  I'm sorry but that comment didn't help me like you any more.

Awesome:

-This hat:

This girl seriously has the coolest. hats. ever.

-Yesterdays sunrise.  Did anyone else see it?!?!  It was so beautiful that I was actually upset I had to drive in the opposite direction!!!  I stole a glance in the rear-view mirror as often as I could to marvel at God's beauty.  :)

-One of my kids randomly breaking out with " Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up...".  Complete with dance moves.

((Betcha can't guess who that was Sara!!))

-This birthday card.  Flippin awesome.  By far the best birthday card I've ever received.  Pretty sure I laughed hysterically, and still do, every time I read it.

HAPPY THURSDAY!!
